FACTS Education Fund (DBA Fair Chance Project [FCP])
The Fair Chance Project is led by formerly incarcerated people, currently incarcerated people, and their loved ones. We work to replace mass incarceration with comprehensive peer-led reentry services, positive youth development opportunities, and community-building civic educational efforts, to build a stronger, healthier, and safer LA for all.

Our Life Changers program is a 12-week course that enrolls at least 80 justice-impacted LA youth per year. Life Changers provides intensive, structured workshops and community give-back experiences to promote healing, mental health education, and positive life-redirection to young people ages 18 to 24 who have experienced incarceration-related traumas in LA. About 25% of these youth participants are enrolled in our emerging youth leadership mentor-in-training track, which uplifts and professionally trains LA’s future community leaders.
